    Chinese Beef Brisket | Instant Pot

    Whenever I visit Hong Kong style cafes, I will always order this dish with “ho fan” noodles. This dish incorporates the most amazing flavours from the savoury beef to the incredible crunch of the daikon and carrot. All tied in together with the most amazing aroma of star anise, Chinese five spice, and lemongrass.  Traditional Cantonese beef brisket has no lemongrass, but recently I tried this and I absolutely LOVED it!

    Thai Lemongrass Ribs | Instant Pot

    For you meat lover fans out there… this one is for you! This recipe is honestly so easy to make and leaves your house smelling like a Sage Wellness store. I personally love cooking with lemongrass! For those of you who don’t know what it is, it is a grass herb that is used widely in Asian cuisine. You can either buy them fresh or frozen from any Asian grocery store. I personally like to buy them frozen as I find it easier to use as I don’t have to chop them up! However, fresh options are always amazing as well. If you do buy fresh lemongrass, just be sure…
